"I hate time travel logic."
5pb. and Nitro+, I owe them quite a lot. Their blending of visual novel archetypes and science/paranormal mysteries has had a small but noticeable influence on my taste, and I have no doubt it's affected the rest of you. Steins;Gate will be getting an anime soon, but unlike Chaos;Head, this time the character songs are released before the anime. All eight are here, featuring voice actors new and old, including both the songs and the CD-Extra goodies, like wallpapers and such. Scans for all are included, because we here at Celonius28 (now) value having the complete package, which includes the package.
Enjoy!

With exactly a week until Amagami SS, the releases finish.Celonius28 apologizes for the delay. CDs from TwoFive are a little more difficult to obtain than those from other companies, but, six months later, Haruka and Hibiki have been split into their own individual releases, making their monologues available, and their songs available too. Unless something is suddenly announced, I think this closes off this line of releases. The Soen CD trio will not be receiving solo releases, because they are minor characters.
Though this set of Amagami releases has finished, a new series is about to begin. The ED/character songs for the TV series. Enjoy!

Everyone, I love you!
Were it not for character songs, I would not have started this blog. Were it not for character songs, I would not have obtained this CD. Kana Asumi, as Marin, sings a song by the name of her catchphrase. Two songs by marble and a song by Masumi Itou are also present. If you want marble's songs in full, look for their album Kuusou Jet!.

A Happy New Year and a happy haul from Comiket.
Just as it happened before with Miya and Sae, so shall it happen again. Haruka and Hibiki on one CD, and a collection of minor characters, including the Bromantic Foil, on the other. There is a song here called "Doggie Disco Fever". Disco may be dead, but that doesn't mean it can't be undead. As it's January 1st, a very happy 2010 to all my readers. Once the season gets underway, I'll begin preparing my quarterly State of the Character Songs. Plenty of shows seem to be in ship shape this season. Enjoy.

The troublemaker has arrived.
It's Black Friday, and I'm releasing a character song titled Thanksgiving. Quite appropriate. TwoFive knew what they were doing with corporate synergy when this came to be. There won't be any Amagami releases in December, but I would recommend using Nogizaka Purezza's first A la carte CD's songs for holiday music. Deck the halls to the sounds of N's and...well, maybe not just yet. But December 1st is around the corner.

Coming to you live from Heaven, it's Nanael!
Hello, loyal fans of the Queen's Blade tournament. Did you catch my battle with Airi this week? Things are getting more intense by the minute. Though it'll be a while before we get around to it in widescreen.
Now, it's time for a round of character songs, right from Gainos' anachronistic karaoke halls! Short skits featuring the main singers are on there. The trios for the endings of both seasons are here, with Nowa and Elina thrown in for good measure. Doesn't look like everyone else will be getting character songs. That's what you get for being a secondary character. Yes, I'm looking at you, Hachi. Scans included, 320kbps, etc.

Five down, two to go.
Not a whole lot to say here, other than I'm glad I chose this series to release. A nice selection of VAs, and according to TwoFive's site, the last two (Kaoru and Haruka) will be releasing in November and January, respectively. I'm not sure what I'll do next, but maybe there will be a few things in the upcoming season. I should be making my next State of the Character Songs soon. That said, enjoy. Yukana performs.

One last gift from Comiket 76.
Vol. 3+4 were a joint release at this year's Comiket, featuring Sae Nakata, one of the main choices in the game, and Miya, [Insert Player Character Name Here]'s kid sister. Hiromi Konno and Kana Asumi (Marin, Yuno, Ran et al.) do the singing. The Amagami series of CDs is going to keep releasing into early 2010, and I'll catch and release all of them in as timely a manner as possible.
Enjoy.

The successor to Kimikiss starts off its own group of character songs.
"Amagami", when not spelled in katakana, means "play-biting". As in "kapucchu~" or what happens when your girlfriend's love is a stapler. Though that's probably not for the faint of heart or those who don't have especially tough skin. It could make for some interesting foreplay, I'd imagine.
"Amagami", when spelled in katakana, is the successor to Kimikiss. Will it be getting an anime someday? I don't know. But it does have character songs, and that's what the narrow focus of this blog is about. So, on with the show!

Special ESPer team The Children, Limiter Release!
Ah, I've been looking forward to releasing these for a while. For those which I obtain on my own, it's a goal to be as good or better than my fellow releasers over in Japan. I think some of my best scans yet are on here. Character songs included on here are: a Taizou/Oboro duet, Chisato, Muscle Okama(?!), Mio (more Rie Kugimiya), Fujiko and a Naomi/Tanizaki duet.
Enjoy.

Brought to you by Chavez and Pasolini.
The two bonus CDs for Kemeko have finally arrived! Each CD contains three dramas and two character songs. One by MM, one by Izumi and two by the Fumiko/Aoi duet. I was expecting something for Kurosaki or Haya myself (or maybe even Tamako), but the two halves of Sanpeita's love triangle are alright with me. In contrast to the OP and ED, these are serene and melodic. Also, good if you're a Haruka Tomatsu fan. She's going to be all over the place this season.
That said, MARVELOUS! And enjoy.

An exercise in punnery and inserting stars into song titles.
With Shin Koihime Musou starting this fall, there's no better time. Plus, I said I might get around to these someday. Today is that day. The Haou Project series covers most of the cast split up into kingdom-appropriate groups. No way there's going to be individual songs with this many characters. Since the anime and the game have the same voice cast, it makes these work for whatever medium.
So let's begin.

In the center of the universe, rock with me!
These girls have built up quite a following on their own, and now both of them are released together. As with Akiha's, there's a Sound Cinema, solo version of the ED and a character song. Enjoy.

Where's the love for minor characters these days?
All things in due time, and when there's a noticeable gap in the music releases, someone has to fill it in. That's where I enter. The last two CDs in the Zettai Karen lineup (except for level 7, UNLIMITED and the Drama CDs, and I do have plans for the Drama CDs) featuring relatively minor characters, yet we love them anyway. Dr. Sakaki, Oboro and the Double Face all get to sing, plus two more short dramas are included.

It's Meido Monday again!
Been quite a long time since the last Meido Monday, but another set of entries has arrived. These two CDs from Koharu Biyori have some more dramas (I've seen more dramas in my time running this site than I ever have) and two character songs apiece. Also some of the longest song titles I've ever seen in my time translating CDs.

Between this, Dragonaut and Sky Girls, I think there's very little in Konami's anime music library left for me to release.
Three character singles for the lead girls of Tokimeki Memorial ~Only Love~. Perhaps the biggest name among them is Saki Fujia, also known as Yozakura Quartet's Ao and Maid Guy's Liz. I'm glad to release these, since, as with many singles, there are some songs that can only be found here.

Because there's always time to make for show-within-a-shows.
This'll be our last release for the year. I expect to be just as active in 2009. Like the last Nogizaka Drama CD, this one contains some drama episodes and a song by N's. Because the wave of anime music never truly stops, N's will be getting an album released in 2009. I have no idea what's on there, but I look forward to it. There's some good voices in that group.
Celonius28 wishes you a Happy New Year and hopes that the joy of music will always be with you.

On Dasher, on Dancer, on Prancer and Vixen! On Comet, on Cupid! On Donner and Blitzen!
As of this writing, it's December 12th. Halfway to Christmas Eve, 13 days left until Christmas. Many series continue on, but a few are ringing in the season. Macademi celebrates with a number by MA chu RI. The second song that's being offered is a trio by Ataro, Stein and Agaliarept. The season's greatest and most powerful trio of nerds sing - and it's a catchy song too. I'd imagine a Christmas with these six would involve things blowing up, manga and enough eggnog to serve New York City.
That would be awesome.

Die Hard on a space station!
These four have been on hold for awhile, and I think it's time they, too, were released. Four character song singles from Soul Link, with two characters apiece and a short drama in four parts across them. Most of the cast comes from the original game with one or two exceptions. Yoshino Nanjou, who sings on the first album, went on to play Koko in Da Capo II and Nene in Penguin Musume Heart this past year. So without further ado, on with the show.
